Was it REALLY a Bad Day? Or a Bad Moment?

Oooohhh my goodness... guilty 🙌🏼

I can not stand when I do this.

Sometimes, one little thing goes wrong and that’s it! My day is over! Now I’m mad and I’m staying that way!

It just happened the other day when someone was rude to me on the phone at work for no apparent reason. That started it. I could have let in go. The anger I felt could have lasted less than five minutes, but nooooooo!!!! I had to hash it over and over in my mind, and tack other “bad things” on to it. Like “if it wasn’t for this then...” blame etc, blah blah blah.

Or how about when you have a bad parenting moment or partnering moment, or humaning moment, and you feel absolutely horrible about it. So horrible that you chastise yourself as of you have behaved in that manner all day everyday for the entirety of your life. It doesn’t have to be a completely bad day. Your not a terrible parent/partner/person.

Learning to be aware when you are dragging out “bad scenarios” and infecting the rest of your day, will help you to stop that mindset from over taking you, and allow you to get yourself back in the right track for a positive day. When was the last time you were able to turn your day around by giving up the pity party??? (And I don’t mean that to offend because I am pretty sure I can be the queen of the party some days)!
